Maybe you have an allergy to coffee?

Puzzle Heros rpg - this is a turn based match 3 game with diagonals and a time limit to match as many tiles as you can, this powers up your colour coded heros and you use them to defeat/harvest food based enemies to stock your food stalls. Stalls make money, money levels up heros, etc.

It’s a ‘reskin’, albeit a very minorly changed one, of Match Quest, and the art/design is all really well done in an old school 8bit pixel style, with some really beautifully done layered scenery.

It gets a bit grindy and will take forever if you want to win every hero and level them all up to max, but as a casual game to dip into a few times a day to collect profits and loot old levels, and then spend twenty minutes or so playing levels, it’s very fun.

I also recommend Flappy Dragon. It’s a resin of the bird game, I think, idk I never played that one. The physics is fun and well thought out for each dragon and the dragons all have really nice designs.

Oh and it’s probably been mentioned a ton on this thread already but Simon Tatham’s Puzzles is a fantastic app full of puzzles that can be played offline.

Ngl, that sounds exhausting to never have time to yourself.

Watch it alone at some point.

The lack of dialogue was one of the best things about Flow for me, after the cat, so much was ‘said’ without ever needing words and the acting of all the animals was captivatingly well done.

Seconding Young Frankenstein! It’s still one of the funniest films I’ve ever watched.

Flow - if you like cats and beautiful animation.

Dave Made A Maze - is a fun watch with good writing.

Death Of Stalin - will be funny to you if you like British comedy.

Prospect - interesting scifi with Pedro Pascal (who I mistook for Nathan Fillion till I looked the cast up, lmao)

Triangle - well done time travel fuckery

Arq - more time travel fuckery

Primer - yet more time travel fuckery

Edit: pretty sure the title of the post has changed, or I somehow just didn’t notice it fully before? Idk, none of the movies I’ve listed are ‘must watch’ they’re just fun watches. I don’t think any film is really a must watch.

Lmao, I really should have read your comments before writing mine.

How To Say Your Favourite Colour And Not Embarrass Yourself This is the funniest and most relatable rant I’ve come across in a while, it probably won’t hit as hard if you’re not a neurotic overthinker though.

Adventures In State Space This is an incredibly well edited video talking about a very interesting maths thing. You don’t have to know why/how the math thing works to enjoy the video. He has other good ones too like where he fucks with a Mandelbrot/Julia set.

Space Station Weird is a bunch of short animations set in the distant future on a very weird space station.

WatchDust is the main page for a channel with a curated selection of independently made short scifi films. Many are really good.

Soggy Rock Facts To Dazzle Your Enemies This is Sage The Bad Naturalist’s channel and she’s a very smart and interesting person who talks about science.

Lol

Lmao, did you really just ask someone why they won’t kill themselves if they don’t want to have children?

And you think you respect life. What irony.

So wtf you still doing here if so miserable and zero hope?

What do you think it means when you say this?

Maybe I’m dramatic, but the other day I thought that’s not unlikely that a “western” country will experience a famine in the next 50 years.

Drought and famine are coming for everyone in the next 50 years.

Global freshwater demand will exceed supply 40% by 2030, experts warn

90 per cent of Earth’s topsoil at risk of depletion by 2050

Might want to add resource depletion to your list.

Global freshwater demand will exceed supply 40% by 2030, experts warn and 90 per cent of Earth’s topsoil at risk by 2050

Fresh water is already low in many places and with no water or arable land to grow food in, that’s not a future that anyone is surviving.

Lmao, did you really just tell someone to kill themselves because they don’t want to have children?

And you think you respect life. What irony.

Will you be telling your kids this? That you created them as a sacrifice for a chance at making life better for other people?

It’s right to be alarmed about climate change, there will be serious long-term impacts, but it seems irrational to be completely fatalistic.

Ok, what about when you also factor in resource depletion? Is it right to be fatalistic yet?

Because from where I’m standing, it doesn’t look like there’s much of a future for anything on this planet when Global freshwater demand will exceed supply 40% by 2030, experts warn and 90 per cent of Earth’s topsoil is at risk of depletion by 2050.

How will the billions of children born in this decade, survive in an increasingly polluted and hot future, with no fresh water or arable land?

You’d want an industrial meat grinder like what they make dog food out of.

I don’t know how well it will hold up but the book Wilt by Tom Sharp covered this in, what I recall being, quite hilarious detail.

Caveat: This book is from the 70’s and a product of its time. While I recall enjoying it when I picked it up (decades later) as a teenager, a comedy about a depressed man who hates his wife and regularly fantasises about killing her, just sounds like misogynistic bullshit to me now, no matter how funny it is. But maybe it holds up somehow, idk.

You’d have about 3 days of quiet contemplation before the dehydration will kill you.

Considering how horrifying the thought of a void is for you, at least you won’t be stuck in there for very long.

Sounds like a great place for meditation.

Pedantic thought experiment side note that is ironically long for a side note:

How is it a void if it contains the ecosystems and consciousness(ess? (Gut biome and the various microscopic skin mites, etc)) of a human body?

That’s a fuck ton of biology, physics, chemistry, philosophy, etc for a space where nothing is supposed to be. Does time also exist there? Because if it didn’t you couldn’t be aware of your self in there, so that would be a problem solved.

If time does exist in this void though, by entering the void you will have changed its nature, it will stop being a void and it starts just being more of you. …And if you still can’t feel anything, I think this is called depression.
